After Mir placed Jenn in the back of the car, kissing her forehead and then covering her top half. He then told her to stay and to rest. It was a nice night out so she would not get too cold or anything like that. He shut the door and started walking back to the house. He needed to speak to Carrick about a delicate matter, something he never thought possible, but he needed it as much as Jenn did.
A slave let him back in and returned to where Carrick was. "Now I have another matter I need to speak with you." He had practiced in his head asking, but this was real life. He would really have to speak those words. He took a breath and stood up tall. "I need you to punish me." There the words where out in the open. He just hoped that Carrick would not laugh at him. He had thought about his long and hard and if he was ever going to forgive himself he needed this.
